Description

Following the enactment of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) Act in 2021, the government of Malta intends to designate an EEZ area or areas beyond its territorial waters.

This would be in line with the rights provided under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and the Exclusive Economic Zone Act (Cap. 625) of the laws of Malta.

Economic operators are wanted to:
- submit proposals for economic activities in line with the rights that can be carried out in such designated areas
- suggest key technical, legal, commercial and/or financial mechanisms under which such activities can be conducted

The activities that can be proposed within the EEZ are:
- production of renewable energy from water, winds, currents and solar including the production and storage of hydrogen
- fisheries and aquaculture projects in accordance with the Fisheries Conservation and Management Act (Cap. 425)
- establishment of artificial islands
- any other economic activity that is allowed under the EEZ Act

This request excludes proposals for oil and gas exploration as these activities are already available for licensing under a separate legislative framework.
